Well, thanks for the attention...
What actually happens depends on the BIOS settings regarding Cool and
Quiet... If it's disabled, when I try to boot the kernel I get the
"BIOS Error" message I mentioned... As soon as the rhgb initallization
is over, the screen gets all sort of messed up, and i guess X freezes,
and I have to reboot...
When cool and quiet is enabled, instead of the "No PSB" message, I get
"ph2 null fid transition 0xe"... and the system freezes at the same
point as before...
I tried to boot @ initlevel 3, but I got a kernel panic error (which I
really can't remember, I didn't spend some time on it, as I need the
machine working)...
BTW, do you think I should let the kernel developers know about this?
